The Green Lantern post credits scene has found its way online for you to see and realize just how messed up this film’s script truly became as it foreshadows where a potential sequel could possibly go.
The sequence features Sinestro (Mark Strong) as he puts on and becomes corrupted by the ring forged using the yellow emotional spectrum of fear, a plot line that was followed and then abandoned in the film, but remains a part of the character from the “Green Lantern” comics.
The problem with all of this is the film never for a second leads us to believe this is the next logical step in this story, so why would they even shoot this sequence unless this is where the story was always intended to go? Man, I’d love to get a proper perspective on just how this film went from point A to point Z.
Here’s a description of Sinestro’s character as it pertains more to the comics than it does the character created in film from IMDB:
Sinestro is an enemy of Green Lantern Corps.
He was the Green Lantern of Korugar. After the Guardians of the Universe discovered that that he had conquered his home world with dictatorship, he was exiled to the antimatter universe thus arrived to the planet Qward, where the Qwardians gave him a power ring which has the similar powers as the Green Lantern rings, only it’s fueled by the yellow emotional spectrum of fear instead of green emotional spectrum of willpower. With his new ring, he becomes the sworn enemy of the Green Lantern Corps, especially with his old pupil, Earth’s test pilot Harold “Hal” Jordan, who helped expose him.
He is has been a member of some groups of supervillains and terrorist organizations, such as The Legion of Doom, The Secret Society of Supervillains, The Injustice League, and The Sinestro Corps.
Yeah, not exactly what you saw on the big screen is it. Well, here’s that post credit sequence if you didn’t stick around to see it in the theater.
